Garage Conversion in San Diego

An underused garage can be transformed into a bright, comfortable, and legal living space. At Fabrick Construction, we specialize in garage conversions across San Diego County, create rental units, guest suites, and family spaces that add lasting value.

Why Convert Your Garage?

Garage conversions are one of the most cost-effective ways to add livable square footage in San Diego.

Homeowners choose garage conversions for:

  • Rental income from a legal ADU
  • Guest suites with privacy and comfort
  • Multigenerational living for parents or grown children
  • Dedicated home offices, gyms, or studios
  • Increasing property value without expanding the footprint

What’s Involved in a Garage Conversion?

Converting a garage isn’t just about finishes — it’s about creating a space that meets California’s building codes and San Diego’s ADU requirements.

Our garage conversions include:

  • Structural upgrades and seismic reinforcement
  • Insulation, moisture control, and air sealing
  • Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC integration
  • Kitchenette and bathroom installation
  • Windows, doors, and required egress
  • City permitting and inspections from start to finish

Benefits of a Garage Conversion

  • Lower cost compared to building new construction
  • Faster timelines (many projects complete in 3–6 months)
  • Smart use of existing space without changing your lot footprint
  • Rental-ready unit that can offset your mortgage or provide steady income
